Emerald Coast Photo Group …

I have recently met photographer, Michael Smith, the owner of Studio One Pensacola , in downtown Pensacola on Intendencia Street. If you are ever in need of a photography studio, he rents his place by the hour with a two hour minimum. It is a first class space and he also has lightening equipment to rent. But, that is not what this post is about … Michael runs a photo group / club called The Emerald Coast Photography Group and they sponsor various photo shoots in the area. I attended one several weeks ago where a car club and a group of motorcycle enthusiasts show up for you to use their cars and motorcycles in your photographs. You can bring your own models or their are several that are members of this club who are more than happy to have you take their photo. It was a chance to meet and talk to fellow photographers … everyone was more than happy to share their knowledge and it was really a good time. Below is one of the photographs that I created …

The car was a 1934 Ford Model T kit car that the owner had built himself and was happy to let photographers use it as a prop. If anyone has any questions, please do not hesitate to ask, whether about the group, the studio … or even how I did the image above. Michael / Studio One can be reached at 850-712-0639. I have several other images from this day that I plan to post in the near future, so please check back. Thanks for looking …
